Hello Everyone!
I've just connected my new gtx 970 (MSI 4gd5t oc) to my mobo and PSU. My PSU is a 600w silverstone 80+ Gold. The gtx 970 has two 6 pin power connections. I used one cable from my PSU that had two 6 pin connections to power the GPU. Is it recommended to use two separate cables from the PSU to power the GPU, or am I okay using one cable with two different heads to power it? Thanks in advance!

Yeah, it's not a modular PSU, but it came with 2 cables labled for "PCI", each of which with two 6 pin connections on each cable. Thanks for the reply!
